What does FLAC mean?
FLAC is a lossless audio format designed for superior sound quality.
FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec, an audio format similar to MP3, but lossless, meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality. This is similar to how Zip works, except with FLAC you will get much better compression because it is designed specifically for audio.

Who’s FLAC for?
You’re a bit of an audio nerd, you regard 320Kbps MP3s to be inferior, you want DRM free,
lossless downloads and you want them now! Sound familiar? Then FLAC is for you.

suum cuique (demdike stare) - Ascetic Ideals

Suum Cuique is the alias used by Demdike Stare's Miles Whittaker to vent his purest analogue noise experiments. Giving a stoic nod to the hardware emissions of Mika Vainio or Maurizio Bianchi, and conducted with a meditative practice comparable with Eleh, his 2nd album 'Ascetic Ideals' is the sound of Miles' machines coaxed into revealing their bleakest secrets, often recorded straight from the mixing desk with no overdubs or edits. Aesthetically, it's closest to his Demdike Stare material, as opposed to his Pendle Coven or MLZ releases, and was - perhaps unsurprisingly - crafted in between sessions for the 'Elemental' album. But these tracks are far more stark, murky and extreme than anything in the Demdike cache. The sound veers between outright shock attacks like opener 'Strohtopf' to plangent techno malfunctions on 'Kuiper Analysis' and the shellshocked, Alberich-like sound sphere of 'Core Values', leading us blindfolded thru the infernal torture chambers of 'Proton Aesthetic' and the Carpenter-esque closing sequence 'Dionysus Decay'. Recommended for the headstrong, just make sure to play this double loud.
